REAR PANEL FEATURES * If you have other USB audio devices connected to your computer, which may have identical names, you may need to try selecting each one until the MULTIMIX 8 USB FX is recognized. If you experience too much latency after adjusting your software latency settings, we recommend the free ASIOALL (Audio Stream Input/Output) driver for PC at ASIO drivers generally perform better and with lower latency since they create a more efficient communication between audio devices and software. 1. POWER IN Use the included power adapter to connect the MULTIMIX 8 USB FX to a power outlet. While the power is switched off, plug the power supply into the MULTIMIX 8 USB FX first, then plug the power supply into a power outlet. 2. POWER SWITCH Turns the MULTIMIX 8 USB FX on and off. Turn on the MULTIMIX 8 USB FX after all input devices have been connected and before you turn on amplifiers. Turn off amplifiers before you turn off the MULTIMIX 8 USB FX. 3. PHANTOM POWER This switch activates and deactivates phantom power. When activated, phantom power supplies +8V to the XLR mic inputs. Please note that most dynamic microphones do not require phantom power, while most condenser microphones do. Consult your microphone s documentation to find out whether it needs phantom power.. USB PORT Use the included cable to connect the MULTIMIX 8 USB FX to a computer. MULTIMIX 8 USB FX requires a USB 1.1 or higher (e.g. USB 2.0) connection. 3

PHONES Connect your 1/" headphones to this output. The PHONES knob controls volume. 6. AUX SEND OUTPUT You may connect the input of an external device (usually an outboard effects device) to this output with a 1/" mono cable. This output can also be used to create a custom monitor mix for onstage musicians. You can adjust the level with the AUX RETURN LEVEL knob AUX RETURN INPUTS You may connect the outputs of an external device to these inputs with 1/" mono cables. This is usually used for outboard effects devices but can also be used like an extra input channel for synthesizers, drum machines, etc. If your source is mono, plug it into the left jack and it will be heard on both the left and right sides TRACK INPUTS You may connect the outputs of an external recording device to these inputs using standard RCA cables. This can be used to listen to a 2-track recording you ve just made, or to connect to a personal media player to play pre-recorded music before your live gig. Press the 2 TRKS/USB TO MONITOR button to hear this in your headphones or monitor speakers.

PLATE 2: An emulation of vintage plate reverb with bright, slightly tinny tonality and a medium-length decay. PLATE 3: A short, bright plate reverb effective for creating subtle spaces. MODULATION EFFECTS CHORUS: A complex, 6-voice chorus ensemble effect with short delays often referred to as a "Chorus / Doubler". Discrete stereo signal path. Slow and watery. FLANGE: Classic stereo flange: a slow, slightly metallic sweep with a discrete stereo signal path. DELAY EFFECTS DELAY 1: A simple slap-back echo with no feedback particularly effective on vocals and rhythm guitars. DELAY 2: Medium-length poly-rhythmic delay with crossover feedback. 3 to ratio between L and R delay times (291 to 388ms) for 3/ vs. / feel. Useful for solo instruments where a long, trailing echo effect is desired. MULTI EFFECTS CHORUS ROOM 1: Room reverb into a slow flanging modulation creates a spacey effect. CHORUS ROOM 2: Fast modulation provides a dramatic chorus effect in a small room for a very lush chorus + reverb sound with a discrete stereo signal path. BYPASS: Bypasses the effects processor no effects will be heard. When recording to your computer, make sure the 2 TRKS/USB TO MAIN switch is in the up/raised position to avoid feedback in your recording.
